Shahrazad Ali ft Malik Z. Shabazz - Are You Still A Slave

[@rickimhotep1236]

What's lovely about this old video is that NOW, Mr Michael Eric Dyson agrees with Shahrazad Ali. I've heard him speak since, even recently and you can hear the learned in his speech today. Seeing a young Malik Zulu Shabazz reminds me of how long bro been out here fighting, trying to give that knowledge. He is a TRUE follower of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad and Khalid Muhammad. R.I.P to them both.

[@powerplay4real174]

She of on this broadcast. First any real believer in the Holy Bible knows Jesus Christ, Yahshua the Messiah is not black or white and none of those folks on that broadcast are black. That's a white supremacists doctrine and it's is got them all at odds then and now. Islamic vs. Christianity when the Holy Righteous book teach both Islam and Christian, Islam mean to have faith in God and submit your will to God and Christian is becoming like Adam the man before he sinned. So we all should be working to be like Christ Yahshua who was the second Adam and did what the first Adam was not able to. And he was beaten and crucified by that we call white and blacks or Romans & Hebrews.

[@RuthlessPragmatic]

Shaharazad Ali is a brilliant woman. However, she embodies the same characteristics she described the BW to have. She's unruly, uncontrollable, and loud. It's interesting. It gives even more credence to her book because she's speaking from a first person point of view. The sad part is if she would've broke out of that behavior her message could've resonated so much more. Because of the way she behaved on these talk shows, her message never reached the masses. I hope the authentic black people begin to change some of our unruly "keepin it real" hood behavior when we get upset. That is one advantage the sellouts have over us, they know how to conduct themselves so they are giving more credence in the eyes of the masses.

[@bravecoldwater9061]

Thanks for tuning in! One thing I will say about Sister Ali is that she's always stated that her books are somewhat of a sobering message to herself as well. She's definitely openly admitted that her mindset at times is a by product of slavery too. What I've always appreciated about her is she never tried presenting herself as perfect however in most talk shows I've seen her in she displayed balanced behavior for the most part especially when she was on the Geraldo Show. Shahrazad Ali can get passionate but Islam has definitely structured & grounded her quite well.

[@honestlygio7830]

Who said black women are loud, unrully, and ghetto? The same people who call us N******. Smh it is our indigenous personality not ghettoness. It's called not putting up with nonsense and keeping it real. I think some of us have been conditioned by the very people who oppress us to label ourselves as they label ourselves. Do we label other cultures like Latino, Italians, or Europeans as being loud an ghetto we we hear them talking loud???? Absolutely not!! This is sad that some of us have subscribed to this and have become prejudice in this matter against our own people.

[@RuthlessPragmatic]

@@honestlygio7830 It is not our indigenous personality, it is ghetto. Our ancestors did not act like this. Malcolm X was extremely passionate, no nonsense and always kept it real. Yet, he never displayed ghetto behavior. This new ghetto behavior is the result of 50+ years of our community being in a matriarch, the result of the crack era, the result of mass incarceration, the result of gangs and violence marketed to our people. This is destructive behavior and it is important to correct it and stop passing it down. Our grandparents would be ashamed of what we claim as our "personality" today.

The oldest Christian bible was found in Africa.

[@bravecoldwater9061]

Originally both Islam & Christianity split in East Africa thus spreading to other regions of the continent. Christianity originated in the Horn of Africa while Islam originated in the Sudan! The first Muslims were Black Africans who developed a system that was originally designed to effectively unite indigenous people & counter the Greco-Roman government at that time as well as the Arab-Persian government. However Arabs infiltrated these traditions after invasions.

@@amgirl4286 No problem beloved! It's difficult because history is constantly interpreted from perspectives. Just to give you some research points, the Hadith was written by Arabs & have little to do with the Quran. 90% of the world's Muslim population actually follow Hadith, not Quran. The two ethnic groups of focus in the Quran are the Muhajirun & the Ansar who were situated in Egypt as well as the Levant region. Historically Europeans called them Saracens (describing them as black). Lastly I'll also say that Islam originally had a divination system similar to Ifa or Vodun. Islamic divination was called Kimiyat.

False, Islam was a cultural continuation of the traditions found amongst the Aboriginals of the Nile Valley & the Indus Valley. The first people in history to hold the title Moor comes from Neb (aka Pharaohs) of so called Egypt who used the term Meri, thus Egypt's indigenous name was Ta-Meri ! The term Meri later crossed over into European languages becoming Merops in Hellene (so called Greek).
